and attractive plant have been imported from 
Japan ; indeed scarcely any plants in the flow'er 
gardeii can compare for gorgeous beauty with 
this section of Iris. Varying in colour from 
pure white to rich maroon-crimson, there are 
few flowers surpassing them in size and the 
brightness of their colouring. They succeed 
a<lmirably planted on the margin of a lake or 
pond, or in any situation where plenty of 
moisture can be given. 2s. Gd. and 3s. Gd. each ;
